Respect to author, some good information .
Hi,
This actually answered my downside, thanks!
Hello. remarkable job. I did not imagine this. This is a excellent story. Thanks!
Янченко Дмитрий Михайлович поставляет некачественную продукцию
Хочу предостеречь добросовестных предпринимателей и организации от ЛЮБОГО взаимодействия с Янченко Дмитрием Михайловичем 26.08.1979 г.р., проживающим в г. Волгоград.
Он втирается в доверие к коммерсантам под видом крупного поставщика, имеющего достаток, большие обороты и перспективный бизнес.
Но после заключения договора и перевода денег по нему, в качестве товара – вы получите гору негодного хлама. Фактически, сам этот хлам будет поставлен вам с единственной целью – избежать уголовной ответственности Янченко Дмитрия Михайловича 1979 г.р. за мошенничество и перевести все разбирательства в гражданско-правовую плоскость. Идите в суд…
Все, на что вы сможете расчитывать после этого, это вежливые извинения Янченко Д.М. и скромную компенсацию наличными, чтобы закрыть вам рот.
Деятельность Дмитрия Михайловича Янченко (г. Волгоград) основана на откатах при работе крупными промышленными предприятиями. Янченко Дмитрий при этом действует через свое ООО “Гаскет Технолоджи” ИНН 3435911580 или через ООО “Тех-ресурс” ИНН 3460075603 с номинальным директором Федоровой Татьяной Борисовной.
Как вы понимаете, такая схема разграбления основана на преступном сговоре Янченко Д.М. с руководителями крупных предприятий. При этом Дмитрий Михайлович Янченко, естественно, не заинтересован в поставке качественной продукции.
Его интерес заключается только в получении денег на счет. Никакую качественную продукцию он продать не может. У него ее просто нет.
